See I thought it was just a little mini hurricane when it came through here but now I have a name to put to these kind of storms. I never knew this and I'm someone that has a goddamn storm spotter license!

But yeah back in 2012 we had a one come through here in the lasted about 10 minutes. Ended up snapping a branch and taking out our power. Ripped the whole electric box off the house.
